Sažetak

In the first part of their report, the authors make a survey of empirical sociological research in the Socialist Republic of Macedonia which began to be conducted in a more organized way and in teams with the formation of the Institute for Sociological and Politico-legal Research in Skopje in 1966. According to data which they cite, empirical sociological research has recently stagnated in this Republic. The reasons for such a state are varied and the authors point to some which follow from the studies themselves as well as from the specific situations created by societal development.
According to the authors, in order to overcome the present unfavorable status of empirical sociological research, it is necessary:
first, that the budgetary position of science be more consistently abandoned and its development linked more directly with the needs of associated social labor, particularly in the area of the economy,
second, that empirical sociological research be less clearly descriptive and strive to penetrate into the essence of investigated social phenomena,
third, that empirical sociological research be planned as parts of set programs, the goals of which would not only be investigation and explanation of given social phenomena but also their changes in harmony with the results of research and the goals of social development, and
fourth, that the legal and socio-economic status of sociologists at faculties and institutes be equalized in order to lessen the existing fluctuations in personnel in the institutes.
